Couple session in Granada
A selection of couple session shots to inspire your session.
What you’ll experience
Why choose Couple session in Granada?
One fact organises every session in this city: the Albaicín faces east across the ravine at the Alhambra, so the fortress is lit by the setting sun while you stand in shade looking at it. That is why the Mirador de San Nicolás is famous and why every serious frame here is made in the last hour of the day from the Albaicín side, never the other way round. From December to April there is snow on the Sierra Nevada standing behind all of it, at 17 degrees in the city — which is the most specific photograph this catalogue offers and exists for four months.
When to book in Granada
December to March is when this session is most itself. The sierra is white, the sun sets around half past six, so you are finished before dinner, and the viewpoints hold fewer people than in summer. February adds almond blossom in the Vega for anyone who wants a second location. May and October give warm evenings without the snow. July and August need a different plan: sunset after half past nine, the viewpoint full from eight, and the Albaicín stones still giving off the day’s heat, so we either start at seven in the morning by the river or accept a late and crowded evening. If you want empty lanes, avoid the days around 3 May, when the Cruces de Mayo put flower crosses up across the city and the squares fill.

“We booked a session to celebrate our anniversary and it was one of the best decisions of the trip. The place, the light and the photographs were spectacular. We also had them back very quickly. Recommended a hundred per cent.”

Best locations
Where to shoot in Granada.
Start high and finish low. A taxi or the C31 minibus leaves you near the top of the Albaicín, and from there every frame of the couple photoshoot is taken going downhill: whitewashed lanes, the gate of a carmen, a flight of steps under a vine, then whichever viewpoint suits the evening. San Nicolás is the famous one and the busiest. The terrace of the Mirador de la Lona beside it shows the same Alhambra with room to move, and San Cristóbal, further west, adds the cathedral and the Sierra Nevada and draws fewer people. For a session with nobody else in the picture, the Sacromonte path above the cave houses is the answer: the fortress seen from higher up, prickly pear in the foreground, very few walkers. The caves are homes, so we photograph past them, never into them. Couples who would rather skip the viewpoints altogether can take the Carrera del Darro instead, flat and narrow along the river with the Alhambra wall straight above, but that is a morning plan.
FAQ — Couple session in Granada
Where exactly do we meet?
Near the top of the Albaicín, at a point we send you as a map pin a few days before, close to where the minibus or a taxi drops you. We do not meet in Plaza Nueva and climb: arriving at the first frame out of breath and warm is the one thing the route is designed to avoid.
What should we wear for the Albaicín?
Shoes with grip first, then everything else. The cobbles are loose and polished, so heels and smooth leather soles are a risk on the way down. A dress that clears the ground moves better than a long train. In winter bring a layer you can take off for the frames: at 680 metres the evening turns cold the moment the sun goes.
What if it rains or the sierra is in cloud?
Rain is most likely in exactly the months the snow is best, so it is worth a plan. If the weather turns, the session moves to another slot at no cost. Low cloud is the subtler problem: it can be dry in the city with the sierra completely hidden, and if the snow is the reason you booked, we will suggest moving even without rain.
